The Bittersweet

There is something bittersweet about having your heart break
while there is pain and distress and a feeling of utter despair
there is a sense of reassurance that this can create
knowing that you still could care

Once again I trusted and was deceived
and this burden I now must heave
But I am glad there is something left to hurt
that someone could make me feel, even if my heart you did desert

I thought there was nothing left of me
an empty shell left to act to the worlds desires
but there was someone who could for time make me see
that I had much more potential for a person I could be

I know the time was short spent
and that too much of my heart I lent
but I am thankful for what you gave me
because for once I could feel and perceive

Trust

What is this concept of trust?
is it not just a false hope
something that will be obliterated and destroyed
a pure thing that in the end leads to disgust

People fail, concepts fail, overall everything fails us
whether it is in the beginning or if it takes time
it will hit us like a huge wind gust
and leave us defined

We will be defined by what we put our trust in
what made us fail in the end
and no matter what, even if we win
we will be left for our opinions to defend

Asked,"why would you trust?"
and we must answer this while left in our own rust
we will be questioned about who we are
while we ourselves are still analyzing the scar

You can choose to trust and to hope,
but I warn you it will only end with a slashed throat
